WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Producer
I have worked with Oliver in the capacity of Executive Producer at Platige Image in Warsaw, where we worked together on the feature project "Fatima". Oliver's skills and abilities worked very well in the areas demanding integrative approach to the workflow and execution.
Oliver is real team player. His knowledge, commitment and perspectives presented in project production are invaluable. He is very attentive, curious of new challenges and supportive in problems solving. His positive attitude and good energy lead to the task completion in efficient and effective way. No limits in his self-development makes him open-minded and always creatively thinking and he gives the proper meaning and proportion to any action taken.
Oliver is a person whose input is always valuable and coworking with him is a pure satisfaction and pleasure as well as a sign of success. He is a fantastic person too. Time spent with him is never boring. I would like him to be my business partner on any creative area.
